《观无量》内容简介
中国壁画主要分两类，一类是墓葬壁画，一类是宫殿寺观石窟壁画；一在地下，一在地上，各有千秋。作者的前一本书《观我生》聚焦墓葬壁画，以墓葬壁画的解读还原墓主人的生命故事和其背后的时代历史，而《观无量》一书则针对宫殿寺观石窟壁画展开。
“观无量”，即观照广阔无量之世界。中国的宫殿寺观石窟壁画如浩瀚之洋，其所描绘，上至佛国仙境，下至人间凡尘，可谓万象百态在其中。作者在图像之海中选择九组壁画，发掘图像中隐藏的历史讯息，还原壁画背后更宏大的时空场景，以及在此场景中生息的人的生命故事，构筑起了一部别开生面的中国史。在这部历史中，发言诉说的不仅仅是文字，还有那些色彩、线条和凹凸起伏，那些生动气韵和传神阿堵。

A brief introduction to the content of "Guan Infinite Quantity"
Chinese mural paintings are mainly divided into two categories, one is the tomb mural, the other is the palace temple cave mural; One underground, the other above ground, each has its own merits. The author's previous book, "View My Life," focuses on the tomb murals, and restores the life story of the tomb owner and the era history behind it with the interpretation of the tomb murals, while the book "View of Infinite" focuses on the palace and temple cave murals.
"To observe the infinite" is to observe the vast and infinite world. The murals of China's palaces, temples and grottoes are like a vast ocean. They depict everything from the fairyland of the Buddhist kingdom to the earth. The author selects nine groups of murals in the sea of images, excavates the historical information hidden in the images, restores the larger time and space scenes behind the murals, and the life stories of the people living in this scene, and builds up a unique Chinese history. In this history, speech tells not only words, but also those colors, lines and twists and turns, those vivid and expressive.
